This is great news, of course. I wonder how much it cost Mr. Johnson out of pocket to defend himself. Thank you Andy Johnson.

What a story. Makes you wonder what the real agenda of the EPA was. For sure, they have a "big hammer" through the potential fines and very few people have the assets to fight them. I am pleased that it worked out. Too bad, there was not a follow up that somebody at EPA was terminated...

Hopefully it will be the Eliminated Protection Agency soon!

The Pacific Legal Foundation represented him Pacific Legal Foundation - Pacific Legal Foundation
They are the same who wrote the amicus brief in Rinehart and several other of the mining cases
